Harvard’s New Chaplain Is . . . an Atheist?

Yes, this man is acting as his own god in his religion of atheism.

Well, no, it’s not. Really, such an idea of no religious affinity is frankly a load of nonsense. This man is an atheist—that’s his religion (not some kind of “neutral” position, as Harvard is implying). He has a belief system, a worldview. He believes all life is a result of naturalism. He believes man determines his own morality and his own “purpose” and “meaning” in life. It’s exactly what the devil tempted Adam and Eve with: “[Y]ou will be like God” (Genesis 3:5). Yes, this man is acting as his own god in his religion of atheism.

So how should we think about atheist chaplains? What Jesus said describes the situation here: “[T]hey are blind guides. And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit” (Matthew 15:14).

Yes, this is a case of the blind leading the blind. Harvard, once a Christian school, is now a leader in raising up generations in the atheist religion. That’s a warning to all compromising schools (like Calvin, Wheaton, and many others): compromising God’s Word, beginning in Genesis, results in ruin.

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is none who does good. (Psalm 14:1)
